Manually created topology backup
StackState Self-hosted v4.6.x
This page describes StackState version 4.6.
This page describes the process of exporting and importing manual topology data, i.e. components and relations that are not synchronized via StackPacks.
Requirements
- Unix shell
To export all manually created components and relations to a file
manual_topo.stj
using the StackState CLI:- 1.Create the export file:sts graph list --manual --ids Component Relation \| xargs \sts graph export --ids \> manual_topo.stj
- 2.Check the generated file
manual_topo.stj
to make sure it contains a correct export of all your topology.
Breakdown of the export command used in the example above:
sts graph list --manual --ids Component Relation
lists all ids of manually created components and relations.| xargs
connects thegraph list
andgraph export
commands.sts graph export --ids
exports all graph nodes by ids.> manual_topo.stj
dumps the results in the filemanual_topo.stj
.
Manually created relations to synchronized components may fail on import if these synchronized components do not exist anymore.
sts graph import < manual_topo.stj
